What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why?
I am the most proud of the script. I am really unhappy with my scenes and wish I could've edited instead instead of being in the video. But since I had to go on a trip, there was only enough time to be recorded. Which 21st Century Skills do you feel this assignment addresses, and why? This addressed interpersonal and informational skills. We needed to write, record, and edit a video in order to then be presented to the middle schoolers. Photography is a very good skill to know and knowing how to edit that footage or pictures is even better. Creativity to write and create scripts is a great skill to have for author and directors. How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skills with this assignment? I wrote a large amount of the script, which I was fine with. I was also recorded reading the entire script but about 50% of the footage was deleted accidentally. I would have edited as well if I didn't end up having other plans. What was most difficult about completing this task? The hardest part was definitely the script due to it needing to be a couple minutes long. I have never been very good at writing which made this a bit more difficult. Luckily, it was information-based so I was able to look up most of the needed information. How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do differently? I would've recorded my footage FAR better than how it currently is. I would've used a better camera and found a way to not make the audio echo as bad. The lighting also made the green screen difficult to edit for the project partner. I also would've planned a bit more ahead in order to get the timing lined up better. How does this relate to what you have learned in the past? I have had to write many things in my years of being a student which made this a bit more bearable. I have also been recorded for other assignments which made me less camera shy. I have a good amount of editing skills which helped guide the partner while I was away. How can you apply this to future learning? Photography is a very good skill to know and knowing how to edit that footage or pictures is even better. Creativity to write and create scripts is great knowledge to have for being an author and director. Knowing that this video will be shown to a younger audience helped with increasing my standards for my own work too. |
